New Kingdom


We are closing in on the end of our Egypt unit.  Today, we will look at the religious revolution wrought by Akhenaten and his wife Nefertiti during the New Kingdom.  Our sources are below:



Akhenaten, Nefertiti, and Three Daughters.



And our primary source side-by-side comparison of the Hymn to Aten and Psalm 104 is attached here.

Will they soon discover Nefertiti's tomb?

And our last pharaoh: King Tut.
